Manawahe W.I . Collects Seed Packets For China
Mrs E. Goldsmith presided over a good attendance of members at the August meeting of the Manawahe Women’s Institute. A considerable number of packets of seeds were collected for the Rewi Alley Appeal, China. A playette presented by Mesdames Appleby, Bowden, Bowes and Wild_ ing was much appreciated.
